Default Breaking noise !!!

Hey Guys/Girls

I recently put 17 inch wheels on my fiesta WQ (Audi A8 replicas) and lowered it 2 inches all round (Pedders sports ryders) in doing this i have noticed a massive increase in breaking noise i was wondering do all you guys out there that have put 17s on your fiesta have this problem?

It is quiet annoying and very loud !!!! i was thinking it is the actual tyres but it only makes the noise when im breaking

The best way to describe it is if the break pads are used up and rubbing on the discs the only thing is the car only has 18000 kms on it i bought it brand new 1 yr ago and i have had a look at the pads and they look fine do you have any suggestions to what it could be it is booked in for the guys at Macarthur ford to have a look at but we all no what dealers are like any suggestions would be great

thanks guys
